Taco Seasoning

 Bear Taco Meat

Ingredients:
5 teaspoons Paprika
1 1/4 teaspoons Garlic Powder
1 1/4 teaspoons Ground Cumin
1 1/4 teaspoons Onion Powder
1 teaspoon Chili Powder
1 teaspoon Oregano Leaves
1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
1 1/2 teaspoons corn starch
1 pound ground bear meat (or beef)
3/4 cup water

Mix spices, herbs, salt and corn starch in small bowl until well blended. Set seasoning blend aside.

Brown meat in large skillet on medium-high heat. Drain fat.

Stir in seasoning blend and water.

Bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. 

Tips:

•For a little heat, try adding 1/4 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper to your seasoning blend.

•To make a big batch of homemade taco seasoning to have on hand, simply double, triple, or even quadruple the seasoning blend part of the recipe. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place up to 6 months. To prepare 1 pound of taco meat, use about 4 1/2 tablespoons of the seasoning blend along with 3/4 cup water.
